The issue is whether or not speaking in tongues is the evidence of having received Him.In three passages (Acts 2, Acts 10, Acts 19) tongues accompanied the infilling of the Holy Spirit. That isn't surprising, since tongues is a gift of the Spirit, and the gifts will be present wherever the Spirit is active (note how in Acts 19 prophecy was also present). There are other passages, such as Acts 8, where tongues does not accompany the infilling of the Holy Spirit. In Christ, - Josh S. Mike,

Acts 3:19-23; Act 11:14 Who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy house shall be saved. Act 11:15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning. Act 11:16 Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost. Act 11:17 Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as he did unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God? Notice verse 14? It is how they were saved...you need to repent, and your rebellion is not manifesting in a beard, it is manifesting in rebellion against the word of truth... why am i here….just another “prophet” who has seen the truth and is seeking to start his own movement… Acts 3:19-23;
